Datavideo DAC-60 HD/ SD-SDI to VGA converter

Datavideo DAC-60 – 3G/HD/SD-SDI to VGA conversion for projectors and LCD screens

The Datavideo DAC-60 converts SDI signals to VGA for display on projectors and LCD screens. It accepts 3G/HD/SD-SDI inputs and outputs a VGA signal, making it suitable when you need to feed legacy VGA displays from modern SDI sources.

Wide-range SDI to VGA conversion

The DAC-60 supports 3G/HD/SD-SDI to VGA conversion. This broad compatibility helps you connect different SDI sources to VGA-equipped displays. As a result, you can use the unit with a range of projectors and LCD monitors without changing the source equipment.

Independent SDI loop-through

This converter provides an independent SDI loop-through. Importantly, the SDI loop-through remains unaffected by resolution adjustments made to the VGA output. Therefore, you can route the original SDI video signal to another device while sending a converted VGA signal to a display.

Aluminum alloy, heavy-duty design

The DAC series features a rugged metal housing built from aluminum alloy. This heavy-duty design enhances durability and suits use in demanding environments. In addition, the housing offers low heat dissipation, so the unit is ideal for long-hour operation in a normally ventilated environment.

Use cases

• Convert 3G/HD/SD-SDI cameras or switcher outputs to VGA for legacy projectors.
• Drive LCD screens from SDI sources while still sending the SDI signal onward via loop-through.
• Deploy in workflows that require a durable, long-running converter in standard ventilation conditions.

In the box

• 1 x DAC-60 product
• 1 x AD Switch DC 12V

Frequently asked questions

Question: What SDI formats does the DAC-60 accept?
Answer: The DAC-60 accepts 3G, HD, and SD-SDI signals for conversion to VGA.

Question: Will changing the VGA resolution affect the SDI signal sent through the loop-through?
Answer: No. The SDI loop-through is independent and remains unaffected by adjustments to the VGA resolution, allowing you to use the original SDI feed with other equipment.

Question: Is the converter suitable for extended operation?
Answer: Yes. The DAC-60 has a rugged aluminum alloy housing with low heat dissipation, making it suitable for long-hour operation in a normally ventilated environment.

Question: What accessories are included with the DAC-60?
Answer: The package includes one DAC-60 unit and one AD Switch DC 12V.

Question: Can I use the DAC-60 with both projectors and LCD screens?
Answer: Yes. The converter is designed to suit projector and LCD screen display applications by converting SDI to VGA.
